I recently got the xcelaration pack, but I haven't had the time to play with it. Looking foreward to some carrier manouvers.

The video card is very important. I haven't run my sim recently, but I highly recommend the CH yoke and rudder pedals. It is MUCH more like real flying.

P.S. I sold OldManTan. I'll be "CHili Red Mini Cooper Clubman S" soon.
